چکیده
Stigmatization towards persons with mental illnesses is a major quality of care concern. Unfortunately, nurses are no less implicated than other health professions. This article reports the results of an evaluation of a learning intervention for psychiatric nursing students in partnership between Brandon University and the Mental Health Commission of Canada. We describe this intervention as an example of transformational learning through nursing education leadership and suggest its use as a promising model for cultural change in healthcare practice. Leaders and managers are encouraged to explore how such a model may be adaptable or implementable for their own organizations and departments.
